PC Gamer has a MechWarrior Online trailer, offering the first look at Piranha Game's upcoming multiplayer mech game. The cinematic teaser shows an Atlas disembarking from a dropship like a lead zeppelin.

Yea it does look nice, but an Atlas does not have jump jets, so that Atlas would end up in pieces on the ground after that drop.

While not as noticeable as it could have been, if you look you'll see that the Atlas drops with an some sort attachment on it's back. It's likely that it's a sort of one time dropjet system like the ones in MW4.

This was exactly my thought too, it looked like it dropped with a disposable thrust system to help it get down in one piece.

Also, cool of them to use the exact startup voice from Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries (albeit slightly changed).
